While you might remember to apply some of your face sunscreen to your eyelids in the a.m., it might be harder to remember to reapply it. That’s where these eyeshadows come in. Honestly, it so easy to use and best of all, you get even, complete skin coverage for better sun protection. Today I’m going to be reviewing the Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator. I was sent this last August, but by the time I was ready to try it out the great British Summer abruptly ended. So, after nearly a year later I can finally test and write about this gadget by Kelli Aspland and Laura Griffin who invented the Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator.

It also contains hydrating and antioxidant-rich ingredients to help nourish your hair and prevent color fading. The Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator is small is size and measures approximately 10.0cm in height and 6.0cm at its widest section. When empty it weighs a mere 50G. Then, “you can use a setting spray with SPF or use a powder sunscreen to reapply during the day without messing up your makeup. It doesn’t do as good a job as truly reapplying sunscreen — but it’s good enough in low risk environments, like if you’re sitting in the shade and wearing a hat,” he adds. However, because the body butter is made with zinc oxide, you might have to spend some more time rubbing it in. There’s also a chance it could leave a white cast on those with darker skin tones. This is where the Solar Buddies Sunscreen Applicator comes into play, children can apply sunscreen themselves. Mess Free! (Well hopefully).

The leave-in treatment also softens hair with a blend of aloe, kelp extract, coconut fruit extract, and algae extract. It’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to reapplying your sun protection. No matter if you choose mineral or chemical filters, make sure to reapply sunscreen to your face, body, and hair every 2 hours or immediately after sweating or working out. When it gets really hot and sunny out, sunscreen isn’t the only thing you need. Your skin needs deep hydration, too. This body oil provides both.

Sometimes, reapplying sunscreen is easier said than done. You might not have access to a mirror or your usual sunscreen lotion. And you might have a full face of makeup or a hairstyle that you don’t want to mess up.According to Zeichner, it helps to have a good foundational layer of sunscreen beneath your makeup to start. I bought a few of these when they first came out and it was the best thing (gadget) I’ve ever bought. My grandchildren love having their own and I find especially when out and driving, I can replenish my sun cream without having cream all over my hands and steering wheel! This is an ingenious device that I think the Dragons Den would love!

If all else fails, you can take a towel and put it over your head to create your own shade,” Zeichner says. The perfect compact size to take anywhere, your Solmate has a mess-free roll-on ball and a removable base for easy refill. And the best thing about it - it is made with certified Ocean Bound plastic. So not only are you using less new plastic, you are also reusing existing plastic waste! Sustainably made right here in Australia. To fill the applicator, you need to simply unscrew the main body from the top section. The Yellow/Orange section is where you fill up on sunscreen. I don’t know the actual volume it can take but I managed to fill mine using around 100ml of sunscreen from my bottle. So, each re-fill will last quite a long time. It’s important to note that when decanting sunscreen, it is essential to ensure that the new container is clean and dry before transferring the product, as any contaminants or moisture can affect the effectiveness of the sunscreen.

The translucent matte formula can be applied anywhere you need it: your face, your shoulders, your hair part. The ultra-refreshing and lightweight formula of this sunscreen spray makes it a standout. It contains organic aloe and coconut water, as well as chemical UV filters. If you’ve ever experienced a scalp burn, you know just how frustrating they can be. This hair mist is designed to protect your hair and scalp from harsh UV rays.
